My optical mouse just started cutting out there, so I rebooted windows, but the problem persited :(
So, I stuck my old ball mouse in and it's working perfectly. Looks like I'm going to have to buy a new optical mouse :'(
I bloody hate this ball mouse though, I can't believe I used to think ball mice were good :lol:
Ya too much cleaning tho with the ball mice eh :lol:
The price is almost on par too I think
this is the time for a sniper boomslang mowze man! lol its $80.00!!!
or u can get one of dem fancy jewel encrusted mice (lol that sounds fucked <_<) for $250.
Hey 4th gen! Waas up dude?
Too bad about your mouse, go get a new MS mouse. Very nice!
Nothing much, I'm on Easter hols from uni, but got a lot of work to do :'(Quote:

I can't afford a new mouse atm, got precisely £21.35 in my current account. Hopefully I'll get my travelling expenses done soon, though I've been saying that for quite some time now... :rolleyes:
You sure its not just the drivers? Maybe something is confticting with it... just some ideas.
No drivers installed for it. It's been working fine for the last years or so... :)Quote:

Maybe you should try installing some.
If it's been working perfectly well for almost a year without the drivers, why would I wish to install them?Quote:

Because its not working :P
Try replacing the LED?
EDIT: Make sure they are the right type.
I think this'll be the solution...have you replaced the led on an optical mouse before?Quote:

while ur at it, give it a green or blue high intensity led? hi-int. becuz the cameras inside the mowze are super sensitive to red light and thus red can be low int. but blue or green needs to be hi-int.
lol speaking of mowze cameras, urs could be bust. did u throw ur mowze at anything?
I just plugged it back in there to test it before looking for a new bulb and it's working again... :blink:
I've no idea why, but it's great to be back to aball mouse again...
@VB, here's the mouse:

You can get a Genius Netscroll Optical Mouse for 9 quid out of Priceless :P (that's the same one I've got for my laptop).
Shame Priceless is in Glasgow... :lol:
